Hainan, China's southernmost island known for its sunny beaches, will start a new stage called “island-wide independent customs operation"” on December 18, 2025. Though the name sounds formal, it does not mean being cut off from others. Instead, Hainan will turn into a special customs area with more open rules. It will act as an important bridge linking China with the world market.
The key of this change is based on three rules:
●“open the first line.
●control the second line.
●and make things free inside the island..
“Opening the first line” means goods from other countries can enter Hainan very easily. Under the new policy, more than 6,600 kinds of imported products (74% of all goods) will be tax-free when sold and used on the island.
“Controlling the second line” makes sure that only some goods moving from Hainan to the mainland need customs checks. People can still travel freely as before. As for “making things free inside the island," goods can move and be stored in Hainan without time limits.
This change will bring real benefits. For Hainan locals, imported daily things will become cheaper. For tourists, the yearly 10,000-yuan shopping limit stays the same. And more kinds of goods will be added, like petfood and musical tools. Foreign visitors will also enter more easily.
For businesses, setting up in Hainan will cost less. This is because of good policies, such as a lower 15%company income tax for qualified firms.
Hainan's growth as a special zone is an important part of China's plan to open up more to the world. Sitingbetween China and Southeast Asia, Hainan is ready to become a key center for trade and tourism. This move will not only create new jobs and better services on the island but also shows China's wish to work closely with the global community.
